Thanks. I did not go with ipfw2 partly because of concerns about
whether it was stable enough (this is on 4.10) and also because

The only way you'll know is to try it. :)

Note that the probes are retransmitted a few times (I think eight times)
before the connection is considered dead, so it would take longer
than two minutes.
